Hi and welcome,

Syn value requests should be posted in here Syn Values - MiniMins.com - Weight Loss Support Forum but it's your first post so no worries!

There's a thread for newbies which has a lot of useful info and links to sub forums on it

As for the syn value, not sure - I can't see it on the SW website I'm afraid.

Well done on your loss so far!

You'll not make that mistake again!! I know its depressing when you think of what you could have had instead and probably enjoyed it more!! Just put it behind you & eats LOTS of superfree to make up for it!

That's cos you havent entered chicken and couscous as free foods. with those included it works out at:

8½ Syns per package/portion on Extra Easy

My God am I entering the wrong info into the calculator what am I doing wrong???

 

[ermintrude]

At the very beginning in the calculator you should always get:

"Please select the meal’s Free Food allowance", then use the drop down menu to select whatever that is, theres a box for Red and a box for Green if you're in an Extra Easy diary. Then AFTER youve entered that info it takes you onto the next page "Step 2. Enter the nutrition information" where you put all the values in.

Are you using the snackulator or something instead? That will just do a straight 1 syn per 20 calories, it's for snack only, it ignores free food so will ignore all the info you give it except the calories and just divide that by 20.

The proper syns calculator is in your food diary . I think theres another one somewhere else on the site as well.

Yeah I think that's what I must be doing! Flip me how many things have I calculated wrong!!!!! Thanks for explaining that Erm x x
